What you’re looking at is a pair of Orpheus HE90 headphones which initially sold for a measly price tag of $US16,000 when they were made in 1991. Only 300 were made. Today, they sell for around $US30,000 on eBay, so not really a bad investment if you think about it! The thing sitting next to them? That’s the HEV 90 tube amplifier which provides the required step-up and interfacing to drive the headphones themselves. Put these on and you’re instantly transported to a place of wonder with crisp clarity and truly quality sound.
